]]> Worked on a script and production of The Oklahoman’s High School Huddle over night. We went into production today. Should post it tomorrow.

The Oklahoman’s sports editor Mike Sherman and deputy sports editor Mike Koehler wanted a high school sports show produced. Ryan Aber would go on camera with me to discuss the prep football scene each week.

And the 2007 season kicks off Thursday. Not much time.

So I wrote a quick show. 5 minute total running time. Backtimed it: Edlamfootball.com is our new site devoted to Edmond North, Edmond Santa Fe and Edmond North football – so there’s 45-60 seconds. We could use a Dave and Angi commercial – another 15 seconds. 2-3 minutes with Ryan talking about the season, with a True or False segment. We would use music under the entire video. Then we met with Bryan Thomas and Billy Davis for opening animation, full screen graphics and lower thired. David Jones created a nice studio setting. Tanner Herriott worked on lighting. Jacquelyn Farris ran teleprompter. Kyle Roberts oversaw the elements and will edit.

We’ll see the finished product tomorrow. We’ll improve production and the look in the coming weeks. But for a quick turnaround (one morning) it went really smoothly and simply.

]]> Today, Kyle, Tanner and I drove up to UCO. A prelim to next week’s big Edlam launch. Always good to have the pre-meet to confirm what should happen.

The guys and I then went into the bleachers to shoot an intro for the upcoming site. UCO Bronchos (note the ‘h’) football players were slaving away, pacing themselves through a mid-afternoon practice. Once we had our shot, we packed gear and headed south.

To a crime scene. This is for an upcoming Cold Case package. Coming to an Oklahoman (Sunday edition) near you. Or your favorite Web site. We shot next to a electric power substation in the 90 degree heat. Gotta love wearing a sports coat. And make up for that matter.

Just kidding.

About the sports coat.
